WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
- For trouble free operation of the electrical components a voltage of at least 11.5 volts is necessary.
- It is possible that the control module will recognize a malfunction and store a Diagnostic Trouble code (DTC) during some tests. After completing all tests and repairs, the DTC memory should therefore be checked and erased as necessary. Refer to ENGINE CONTROL MODULE DTC MEMORY, CHECKING AND ERASING .
- If the engine only starts briefly and then shuts off again after troubleshooting, repair or checking of the components, it may be that the immobilizer is blocking the Engine Control Module (ECM). The ECM may have to be adapted then. Refer to "Guided Functions" in the vehicle diagnostic tester.
